VOLUNTEER

The Maple Leaf Planning Committee is a volunteer organization. We rely on members of the community and local organizations to provide a successful festival every year.

The goal of the Maple Leaf Festival is to provide a quality, family-friendly fall arts and crafts event while empowering our local community and non-profit organizations. A successful festival allows us to fund scholarships, support local charities, and community organizations.

We currently need volunteers to help during the festival for a variety of tasks such as manning barricades, parade route control, facilities management, information and more. If your non-profit group is looking for an opportunity to help another great organization while raising money, contact our volunteer coordinator.
